News

  • Reports to training camp

    Cook reported to training camp Tuesday, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Per Cronin, Cook arrived early in the day to get his first COVID-19 test. The running back will then presumably participate in the team's virtual meetings in the afternoon. Though Cook reported to camp on time, his contract issues have not been resolved, with Chad Graff of The Athletic noting that it remains unclear "how involved Cook will be in the actual on-field part of training camp if he remains without a new deal."

  • Training camp status disputed

    Cooks' agent, Zac Hiller, refuted a report indicating that Cook told running backs coach Kennedy Polamalu he was planning to report to training camp Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Saturday has been a mess of miscommunication between Cook and the team through the media, which started with coach Mike Zimmer saying in the morning that Cook told him he would be reporting to camp Tuesday, which Hiller refuted later in the day. Another report indicated Cook relayed said information to Polamalu instead of Zimmer, which Hiller also says did not happen. Cook previously indicated he would hold out until he receives a "reasonable" extension, but Saturday's back and forth has been…read more

  • Still expected in training camp

    Cook told running backs coach Kennedy Polamalu he plans to report to training camp Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Coach Mike Zimmer said earlier Saturday that Cook told him he would report to camp on time, but Cook's agent, Zac Hiller, refuted that information from Zimmer later in the day. The 25-year-old apparently had a similar conversation with his position coach, who then talked to Zimmer. Cook previously said he wouldn't report until he receives a "reasonable" extension, but the holdout penalties under the new CBA are much harsher than the previous agreement. Regardless of Saturday's "he said, he…read more

  • Agent denies talk Cook will report

    Cook's agent, Zac Hiller, said that Cook did not tell head coach Mike Zimmer that he would report to training camp Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Zimmer told the Minnesota media earlier Saturday that Cook told him he would not hold out and would report on time when Minnesota's training camp beings Tuesday. Heading into the final year of his rookie deal, in which he would play under a $1.3 million salary if not extended, Cook previously said he would hold out until he receives a "reasonable" extension. We'll have to see if Cook reports Tuesday or if he plans to hold out.

  • Will report for training camp

    Cook told Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer that he will report for the start of training camp Tuesday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Heading into the final year of his rookie deal, in which he would play under a $1.3 million salary if not extended, Cook previously said he would hold out until he receives a "reasonable" extension. It's not clear if he received a contract offer or had a change of heart. Either way, it looks far more likely he'll be on a regular schedule for Week 1.

  • Holding out for extension

    Cook announced Monday that he intends to exercise a holdout from team activities until he receives a "reasonable" extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Heading into the final year of his rookie deal, in which he would play under a $1.3 million salary if not extended, it's not surprising to see Cook make use of what leverage he has and hold out from all team-related activities. Schefter reports that the Pro Bowler "will not be showing up for camp or beyond" until the Vikings offer him an extension, a hint that Cook could tentatively carry his holdout into the regular season should it come to that. The 24-year-old was one of the premier ball…read more

  • Taking part in virtual program

    Cook will participate in the Vikings' voluntary offseason program, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Entering the final year of his rookie contract, Cook presumably hopes to sign a long-term deal before Week 1. His participation in the virtual offseason program suggests his relationship with the team remains good, but it doesn't necessarily mean he'd be willing to put his body at risk in actual practices without the security of a new contract. With little hint as to when NFL teams might be able to practice, the Vikings probably won't feel too rushed to complete a deal.

  • Ready for extension talks?

    Cook could be in line for an extension later this offseason, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Following a breakout 2019 campaign, Cook is entering the fourth and final season of his rookie contract. The recent track record of RB contract extensions involves a lot of regret on the part of the teams that re-signed those players, but Cook does have age (24) and limited workloads pre-2019 working in his favor. Of course, injuries were largely to blame for his modest volume through two seasons, with a torn ACL in 2017 followed by a lingering hamstring injury in 2018. Even his breakout season…read more

  • Stifled by Niners

    Cook carried the ball nine times for only 18 yards and caught six of eight targets for eight yards in Saturday's 27-10 loss to the 49ers in the NFC divisional round.

    Analysis: The third-year running back saw his season end with a whimper after he carried the Vikings into the divisional round with a huge performance last weekend against the Saints. Cook stayed mostly healthy in 2019 and proved he can be a three-down bell cow, rushing for 1,135 yards and 13 TDs through 14 games while adding 53 catches on 63 targets for an additional 519 yards. Alexander Mattison could grow into a more prominent role next season if the Vikings make an effort to keep Cook from breaking…read more

  • Scores two TDs in upset win

    Cook (shoulder) carried 28 times for 94 yards and two touchdowns Sunday against the Saints. He also caught three of five targets for 36 additional yards in the 26-20 wild-card win.

    Analysis: Making his return after recovering from a shoulder injury, Cook managed a meager 3.4 yards per carry against one of the league's best run defenses but nearly reached the 100-yard mark through sheer volume. He scored a five-yard rushing touchdown in the second quarter and added a one-yard score in the third. Cook was also quite effective as a receiver, finishing second on the team in receiving yards and third in targets. He should be instrumental in the gameplan for next Saturday's…read more

  • Practices fully

    Cook (shoulder) practiced fully Wednesday.

    Analysis: As did Alexander Mattison (ankle), with Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com noting that the duo took their usual first and second-team reps at practice Wednesday. With both Cook and Mattison slated to return to action in Sunday's wild-card game against the Saints, Mike Boone will drop down to third on the depth chart and may be phased out of the Vikings' offensive game plan.

  • Doesn't foresee any limitations

    Cook (shoulder) said Wednesday that he will be at full strength for this weekend's wild-card game in New Orleans, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Cook made similar comments Tuesday, downplaying any concern about his late-season absence extending into the playoffs. The Vikings will release their first injury report of the week later Wednesday.

  • Gearing up for Sunday

    Cook (shoulder) is optimistic he'll play this weekend after sitting out the last two games. "I've been putting the time in and I feel good" he said Tuesday, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old went through warmup drills prior to a Week 17 loss to the Bears, so it's not a major surprise he's still upbeat a couple days later. The Vikings will release their first injury report of the week Wednesday, which should clarify Cook's status, but for now the star running back appears on track to retake the field Sunday at New Orleans.

  • On track for playoff return

    Cook (shoulder), who is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Bears, is planning to return from a two-game absence for the Vikings' wild-card matchup next weekend, Chad Graff of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Cook has only been able to practice on a limited basis since injuring his shoulder in the second half of the Vikings' Week 15 win over the Chargers, but he may have pushed harder to play in the regular-season finale if Minnesota had playoff positioning at stake. Instead, since the Vikings are locked in as the NFC's No. 6 seed regardless of how Week 17 action plays out, Cook will benefit from some additional time to rest his shoulder. Graff notes that Cook was still taking part in warmup drills…read more

  • Won't play until wild-card round

    Cook (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Chicago, with the expectation he'll return for the wild-card round of the playoffs, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Fellow running back Alexander Mattison (ankle) is listed as questionable, but he probably won't be in store for many touches even if he's active, considering Minnesota doesn't have an opportunity to rise above the No. 6 seed in the NFC. Mike Boone and Ameer Abdullah are the best bets to take snaps in the backfield in the regular-season finale, while Cook finishes his breakout campaign with 1,654 yards from scrimmage and 13 touchdowns in 14 games. The Vikings will face the Saints, Packers,…read more

  • Puts forth limited practice

    Cook (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Cook maintained his listing on the practice report from Wednesday, when the Vikings submitted an estimate since the team only held a walk-through due to the holiday. After not practicing in any fashion before being ruled out ahead of Monday's loss to the Packers, Cook looks to be in a better place health-wise than he was a week ago, but that doesn't mean he'll suit up in the regular-season finale against the Bears this weekend. With the Vikings locked into the No. 6 seed for the postseason, the…read more

  • Limited in walk-through session

    Cook (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's walk-through session.

    Analysis: Since the Vikings didn't hold a traditional practice on account of the Christmas Day holiday and the quick turnaround from a Monday night loss to the Packers, Cook's "limited" listing is merely an estimate for his activity. As such, it's difficult at this stage to gauge Cook's chances of playing Week 17 versus the Bears, though the fact that the Vikings are locked in as the NFC's No. 6 seed in the playoffs could prompt the team to err on the side of caution and hold him out Sunday.

  • Officially out against Packers

    Cook (chest) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Packers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Minnesota will be without its starting running back for a vital divisional matchup in Week 16 with Cook unable to go due to his chest injury. Schefter adds that Alexander Mattison (ankle) is questionable, meaning that Mike Boone should be in line for an elevated role against the Packers.

  • Not spotted at practice Saturday

    Cook (chest) wasn't spotted at practice Saturday, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: We'll circle back on his status once the Vikings' final injury report of the week is revealed, but Cook is expected to be out Monday night against the Packers. Meanwhile, Alexander Mattison was seen testing things out with his ankle during individual drills Saturday, but he's still looking iffy for Week 16 action. If both Cook and Mattison can't play Monday, Mike Boone will be in line to head Minnesota's rushing attack against Green Bay.

    Cook (chest) and Alexander Mattison (ankle) both are absent from Friday's practice, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Most signs point to Mike Boone handling the lead role Monday against Green Bay, though the Vikings haven't ruled out the possibility of Cook and/or Mattison playing. A Thursday report from Adam Schefter of ESPN suggested the Vikings were leaning toward shutting Cook down for the next two weeks, hoping to get him healthy before the playoffs. On the other hand, Cook did say he'll go through his normal routine of team meetings and work with the training staff, preparing as if there's at least some…read more

  • Doesn't practice Thursday

    Cook (chest) isn't participating in Thursday's practice, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The Vikings will begin Week 16 prep with both of their top two running backs going down on the injury report as non-participants, as Alexander Mattison (ankle) was only able to work out on the side with a trainer. Cook, meanwhile, was merely a spectator during the portion of the session that was open to the media, leaving Mike Boone to handle the first-team reps. Adam Schefter of ESPN relayed earlier Thursday that Cook is unlikely to suit up Monday night against Green Bay, but the 24-year-old…read more

  • Unlikely to play Monday

    Cook (shoulder) is considered unlikely to play this coming Monday against Green Bay, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Schefter suggested on ESPN's Monday Night Football broadcast earlier this week that he would be surprised if Cook was available for the final two regular-season games, but Thursday's report is the first time he cited a source in reference to the running back's likely absence for Week 16. With Minnesota expected to prioritize Cook's health for the posteason, Schefter notes that the club is leaning toward shutting him down for the Week 17 matchup with the Bears as well.

  • Coach downplays injury

    Coach Mike Zimmer said Cook "feels good" Monday and expressed optimism that the running back will be able to play through his right shoulder injury in the Vikings' Week 16 game against the Packers, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Zimmer's comments about his players' injuries aren't always especially reliable, so the Vikings' practice reports this week will likely prove more telling with regard to Cook's status for the matchup between the NFC North's top two teams. Given that the division title is still up for grabs, it would be somewhat surprising if Cook ultimately was withheld from action against Green Bay if he's healthy enough to practice in at least a limited fashion this week. With Cook exiting early in the Week…read more

  • Injury severity unclear

    Coach Mike Zimmer indicated in his post-game press conference after Sunday's victory over the Chargers that he isn't sure about the severity of Cook's shoulder injury, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

    Analysis: Zimmer did say that this injury is unrelated to the chest injury Cook has been dealing with recently. Expect further clarification on Cook's status once the Vikings get into their week of practice.

  • Ruled out of Sunday's contest

    Cook won't return to Sunday's game against the Chargers in L.A. due to a shoulder injury.

    Analysis: Early in the third quarter, Cook seemed to land hard on the right shoulder injury that has afflicted him since a Week 11 hit against the Broncos. After being tended to on the turf, he proceeded to the sideline medical tent and was ruled out shortly thereafter. With his usual backup Alexander Mattison (ankle) sidelined Sunday, the Vikings' backfield has been whittled down to Mike Boone, Ameer Abdullah and fullback C.J. Ham.

  • Mitigates inefficiency with score

    Cook carried the ball 18 times for 62 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 14 win over the Lions. He also added two receptions for 13 yards.

    Analysis: For the third consecutive game, Cook failed to record a run of greater than nine yards. However, he ultimately came through with a decent statistical performance due to a three-yard touchdown run just prior to halftime. Though there was some concern over the Cook's health throughout the week, his 20 total touches suggest that he was feeling good enough to remain a focal point of the team's game plan. Unless there is a setback, that should remain the case for Week 15 against the Chargers.

  • Cleared to play

    Cook (chest) isn't listed on the final injury report for Sunday's game against the Lions, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Cook never returned after his early exit from Monday's 37-30 loss to Seattle, but the Vikings maintained all along that he'd be fine for Week 14. Coach Mike Zimmer didn't sound concerned when he spoke to the media after Friday's practice, noting that the chest injury won't impact Cook's ability to grip the football, per Chad Graff of The Athletic. Even so, it isn't out of the question for Alexander Mattison to see a bit more work than usual, especially if the Vikings are nursing a large lead.

    Cook (chest) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Despite having his reps capped for the second straight day, the running back remains optimistic that he'll be able to play Sunday against the Lions, with coach Mike Zimmer also supporting that notion, per Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press. Even if Cook ultimately gains clearance to suit up this weekend, the Vikings could choose to act conservatively with his workload, given his injury history along with the fact that Minnesota is a double-digit favorite in Week 14 while hosting a…read more

  • Limited to start week

    Cook was limited in Wednesday's practice due to a chest injury.

    Analysis: Cook was forced out of Monday's loss to the Seahawks in the third quarter due to what was initially believed to be a right shoulder injury, but follow-up reports have clarified that he's dealing with a chest issue. The star running back said prior to practice Wednesday that he's confident he'll be ready to play Sunday against the Lions, with his ability to play through the injury likely coming down to a matter of pain tolerance.

  • Expects to play Sunday

    Cook, who was forced out of Monday's 37-30 loss to the Seahawks with what is being described as a right shoulder injury, plans to play in Week 14, Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. "I'll definitely be ready to go Sunday," Cook said of this weekend's home game against the Lions.

    Analysis: Supporting that notion is that Cook indicated he could have returned to Monday's game, but was held out for "precautionary'" reasons, while Alexander Mattison filled in as the team's lead back. Despite Cook downplaying his injury, there's a decent chance it will impact his practice participation in advance of Sunday's contest.

  • Downplays injury

    Cook, who left Monday's loss to Seattle after taking a hit to the chest/shoulder area in the third quarter, said he sat out the remainder of the game for precautionary reasons, Ben Goessling of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. Cook added he'd be ready to play next week.

    Analysis: The running back indicated the blow landed on the same spot he'd sustained an injury to back in Week 11 against the Broncos, although the prior issue didn't force him off the field. Alexander Mattison took over and ended up with four carries for 22 yards, while Cook had nine carries for 29 yards and a touchdown before departing. He also added three receptions for 35 yards. While Cook is optimistic about his injury, check to see how he fares in practice this week.

  • Headed to locker room

    Cook is headed to the locker room with a shoulder injury and is questionable to return to Monday's contest against the Seahawks, Ben Goessling of The Star Tribune reports.

    Analysis: Cook went straight back to the locker room after suffering a shoulder injury, as the play resulted in a fumble recovered by the Seahawks. Look for more updates to come as they are made available. In the meantime, it will be Alexander Mattison taking over as the top back with Ameer Abdullah and Mike Boone also active.

  • Dealing with chest injury

    Cook was listed as limited on Thursday's practice report due to a chest injury.

    Analysis: After racking up at least 100 yards from scrimmage eight times in the first 10 games of the season, Cook sputtered in the Vikings' last contest Week 11 with 57 total yards, his second-lowest mark of the season. The team's ensuing bye week meant the running back wouldn't be listed on an injury report again until Thursday, at which point he was estimated as a limited participant. He'll have two more practices to prove his health ahead of Monday's game at Seattle.

  • Breaks through to cap comeback

    Cook ran for 26 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries and added five catches for 31 yards during Sunday's 27-23 win over Denver.

    Analysis: Cook wasn't getting much of anything going against the Denver front in the first half and didn't do much better in the second half, though the Vikings were more successful getting him the ball in the screen game, and he did find the end zone on a three-yard zone run early in the fourth quarter. Sunday was Cook's second smallest yardage total of the season and only the third time in 11 games in which he was held under 100 yards from scrimmage. He has scored in all three of those games and…read more

  • Carries offense in big way

    Cook rushed 26 times for 97 yards and a touchdown and caught seven passes for 86 receiving yards in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Cook didn't have very many holes to run through against the Cowboys' front seven (3.7 yards per carry), but he was able to put up a huge fantasy line through sheer volume and a trip to the end zone (10th rushing touchdown of the season). The NFL's leading rusher also led his team in receiving, tying his season high of 86 receiving yards. Cook was the clear-cut winner in a star running back showdown with Ezekiel Elliott (63 total yards), and the former is making a strong case for fantasy MVP…read more

  • Garners 116 total yards in loss

    Cook rushed 21 times for 71 yards and brought in four of seven targets for 45 yards in the Vikings' 26-23 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.

    Analysis: Cook came into the contest with sky-high expectations due to the favorable matchup against a suspect Kansas City run defense, but he was mostly contained throughout the contest. The star running back had a long run of 12 yards, and fell short of the 100-yard mark on the ground for the third time in the last four games. Cook did encouragingly continue with his solid passing game role, as his four catches tied for the team lead and pushed his reception total over the last two contests to nine…read more
